==Description==
The '''''Diomede''''' is an early [[Dark Age|post-Jihad]] IndustrialMech that was produced by Curtiss Hydroponics of [[Silver]].  Starting with the D-M3D-3 model, this massive ConstructionMech was designed to handle the rigors of harsh realities that face potential customers.  In addition to handling potential construction tasks, the ''Diomede'' can also serve as a [[SecurityMech]] if needed. Because of this combat equipment, the [[Republic of the Sphere]] requires users to pay large amounts in licensing fees to help keep it from falling into the wrong hands.<ref name="TRO:3085p110+"/>

==Equipment and Capacities==
The ''Diomede'', in its intended role as ConstructionMech, has a single left arm-mounted heavy [[pile driver]], which is designed as a tool for digging and laying down cables. A pair of [[rivet gun]]s are found on the 'Mech's fully articulated right arm, which can be used for holding various metal girders or other construction tools at the work site.<ref name="TRO:3085p110+"/>

Pair of Rivet Guns are found on the 'Mech fully articulated right arm, which can be used to mechanical fastener hold various metal girders into place during building construction.
  
A [[lift hoist]] is mounted on each of its side torsos, facing backwards allowing it to tow/carry large objects. The ''Diomede''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s heavy tonnage and caterpillar track allow for great stability and mobility when it is moving cargo and other construction materials with the hoists. The tracks are found on the leg actuators, and the ''Diomede'' must bend its knees in order to utilize them. The 'Mech is powered by a classic [[Nissan 200|200-rated Nissan]] [[fusion engine]], giving the design considerable amount of power to run its equipment and perform tasks.<ref name="TRO:3085p110+"/>

The 'Mech powered by a classic 200 Rated Nissan Fusion Engine, giving the design considerable amount of power run its equipment and tasks.
  
To assist in demolition work, the 'Mech features a pair of [[Doombud]] [[MML-7|7-tubed multi-missile launchers]] which are hidden in the side torsos. The launchers are guided by an [[advanced fire control system]], which allows it to use missiles to break down its intended subject for its task. Each of the launchers' 2 ton ammunition bays are protected by [[CASE]]. The 'Mech's hull is protected by 19 tons of [[Kallon]]'s [[Heavy Industrial Armor]]. To further ensure the pilot's survival in case of dangerous conditions, attack, or crumbling buildings, the head is fitted with an ejection seat that is not normally installed in IndustrialMechs. These latter qualities of the design have garnered interest by security and private mercenary units.<ref name="TRO:3085p110+"/>

*; D-M3D-M : This ''Diomede'' is a cheap [[BattleMech#Assault|assault]] 'Mech introduced in [[Introduction Year::3092]].<ref name="MUL3"/> None of the standard industrial equipment remains in this variant. It has been replaced by a pair of [[medium laser]]s, twin [[machine gun]]s, and a [[Gauss rifle]]. The 'Mech retains the twin MML-7 launchers. The tracks used by the standard ''Diomede'' remain.
